Driving in Penang

The other day I was in Penang and my friend came and fetch me from the airport..

While we were on our way to the office…

I had a culture shock. Back in my place, it’s a norm to give ways to each other.

The most shocking part is the expression on my friends. We were chit chatting happily and they turned into killing mode instantly. I can feel so much hatred, anger and annoyed. 😐 Scaryy…

Then, I found out that it is dangerous to give way in Penang as the drivers behind the car will not give you back your road. 😐

Thank God, I don’t drive in Penang else I might stranded there for the whole day.

I noticed every places have their own driving pattern. In Kuching, the biggest problem is parking. People do two slots parking, three slots parking, pedestrian walkway parking and even divider parking. 😐

Do you noticed a pattern of driving in your city?

Apology if the comic is not entertaining for today. I was in a rush (having too much work in hand T^T) so didn’t manage to brainstorm and draft my story before draw.

kuching ppl won’t park 100% inside the parking slot! it’s so annoying! it’s like kiddo colouring and they literally don’t want to colour inside the box! i had to keep asking my mom to re-park her car properly whenever i go back to kch. klang valley pulak ppl dun use signals… friggin’ annoying as well! dunno where dafuq they want to turn to or go to… it’s like they expect us to ‘predict’ where they’re going! argh!!!

Exactly!! hahaha they all failed parking 1.
i think they don’t know such signal thingy exist in cars ahahha

Haha, the dog’s eyes are so funny…from normal to surprised to DEVIL!!!

Sometimes I also see drivers who won’t give way in Penang (like the others said…once you turn on your signal, they will zoom up and block you) but some are still okay la. Maybe half-half… (but that’s already too much. Must cut down further. Haha…)

penang drivers are the worst!! no point signaling to cut lane… the other car will just suddenly speed up and not let u in…. horrible penang drivers…. drove there for a year… stress gilerrrrr… somemore the lanes in penang is already small… everyone driving big cars @.@
too scary n stressful to drive in penang… kl drivers are much better in comparison…. at least many will give way…

Lol. Penang Island traffic is much terrible than in KL. Not only it is almost always jammed, the road are confusing and there are so many small lanes. Whenever we go for the heart of the Island, I always avoid driving if I can.. haha
